Lord, we thank you for Selina Robinson, member for Coquitlam-Maillardville. We ask that would infuse her with wisdom, compassion and strength as she represents her constituents and region. We pray she would see success in all her area’s of responsibility and that you would continue to demonstrate your goodness in her and through her. We ask for your blessing on her marriage and family in Jesus’ name, Amen.
